Since it is non woven medical fabric, the primary standard is antibacterial ability. Generally, SMMMS three-layer melt-spraying layer structure will be used, while ordinary non woven medical fabric uses single-layer melt-spraying layer structure. Compared with this, three-layer structure definitely has stronger antibacterial ability. As for non-medical non woven fabrics, because there is no melt-blown layer, does not have antibacterial ability.
